• #### Krylov methods for solving a sequence of large systems of linear equations. ﻿

(2015-07-22)
Consider solving a sequence of linear systems A_{(i)}x^{(i)}=b^{(i)}, i=1, 2, ... where A₍ᵢ₎ ϵℂⁿᵡⁿ and b⁽ⁱ⁾ϵℂⁿ using some variations of Krylov subspace methods, like GMRES. For a single system Ax=b, it is well-known that ...
• #### The left-definite spectral analysis of the legendre type differential equation. ﻿

(2010-02-02)
Littlejohn and Wellman developed a general abstract left-definite theory for a self-adjoint operator A that is bounded below in a Hilbert space (H,(‧,‧)). More specifically, they construct a continuum of Hilbert spaces ...
• #### Local automorphisms of finitary incidence algebras. ﻿

(2017-07-07)
Let $R$ be a commutative, indecomposable ring with identity and let $(P,\le)$ be a locally finite partially ordered set. Let $FI(P)$ denote the finitary incidence algebra of $(P,\le)$ over $R$. In this case, the finitary ...
• #### On a ring associated to F[x]. ﻿

(, 2013-09-24)
For a ﬁeld F and the polynomial ring F [x] in a single indeterminate, we deﬁne Ḟ [x] = {α ∈ End_F(F [x]) : α(ƒ) ∈ ƒF [x] for all ƒ ∈ F [x]}. Then Ḟ [x] is naturally isomorphic to F [x] if and only if F is inﬁnite. If F ...
• #### Orbit structures of homeomorphisms. ﻿

(, 2012-11-29)
In this dissertation we answer the following question: If X is a Cantor set and T: X → to X is a homeomorphism, what possible orbit structures can T have? The answer is given in terms of the orbit spectrum of T. If X is a ...
• #### Quadratic Lyapunov theory for dynamic linear switched systems. ﻿

(, 2014-01-28)
In this work, a special class of time-varying linear systems in the arbitrary time scale setting is examined by considering the qualitative properties of their solutions. Building on the work of J. DaCunha and A. Ramos, ...
• #### Restarting the Lanczos algorithm for large eigenvalue problems and linear equations. ﻿

(2008-10-02)
We are interested in computing eigenvalues and eigenvectors of large matrices and in solving large systems of linear equations. Restarted versions of both the symmetric and nonsymmetric Lanczos algorithms are given. For ...
• #### Similarity of blocks in parabolic category O and a wonderful correspondence for modules of covariants. ﻿

(2018-07-13)
Let (g,k) be the pair of complexified Lie algebras corresponding to an irreducible Hermitian symmetric space of noncompact type. Then we have an associated triangular decomposition g = p− ⊕ k ⊕ p+, and q = k ⊕ p+ is a ...

(2017-07-08)
In this dissertation, we explore and analyze highly effective and efficient computational procedures for solving a class of nonlinear and stochastic partial differential equations. We are particularly interested in ...

(2006-07-29)
For the third order ordinary differential equation, $y'''=f(x,y,y',y'')$, it is assumed that, for some $m\geq 4$, solutions of nonlocal boundary value problems satisfying $y(x_1)=y_1,\ y(x_2)=y_2,$ \[y(x_m)-\sum_{i= ...
